I went from a inline 6 BMW diesel manual engine I drive for 10 years to my current Mazda 6 2.5L with automatic. Its easier and more luxurious to drive the automatic, but when I going for drive enjoyment I still have the habit of grabbing the shift lever when downshift is needed, and I often miss the feel and control of the manual when I edging it on curvy roads, even when my automatic has shift paddles, its just not the same.

But in a traffic jam in a city, for sure I will any day take an automatic over manual...

I installed my Arch on Desktop in 2009 and it was just cloned from one disk to another through multitude of PCs, and sure, there were occasional troubles, like upgrade from SysV init to systemd, when KDE plasma 4 released, or the time, when I had to run a custom kernel and mesa which supported the AMD Vega 56 card ~month after release.

But nowadays, I didnt had a single breakage for several years, my RX6800 GPU was well supported 3 months after release, and most things just work... BTW I run arch also on my home server, in 6 years it had literally zero issues.

Dont forget, around 30% of ALL US emissions comes from US military - but no one is pushing to reduce that, and to the contrary, many politicians push for green stuff while also push for war and military... The level of ignorance and hypocrisy...

Well I prefer to dim the screen for night instead of just screw up colors with low blue... It definitely helps me with getting sleepy easier.

But then they also have to add a wiper to those cameras, they will get bloody from all those massacred bodies run over...

VPN is basically just a encrypted channel between 2 systems, while one of them forward traffic to the internet and unless they block/filter every encrypted connection, there is no way to block it at mass...
